In this episode, Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May celebrate the affordable, practical and fun wonder that is the hot hatchback. With Clarkson in the VW Polo GTI, Hammond in the Ford Fiesta ST and May in the unpronounceable Toyota Yaris GRMN, the three head to the Grand Tour rallycross track until they're told to stop mucking around and make these cars appeal to the young. Armed with stickers, slogans and social media, the three embark on a series of challenges involving fake punctures, mis-spelt rappers and a juicing disaster. Also in this show, Hammond and May are at the Eboladrome comparing two icons of the ‘80s, the Lamborghini Countach and the Ferrari Testarossa.

In this episode, Jeremy Clarkson tests two modernised versions of classic Lancias, one a thorough update of the Delta Integrale, the other a completely new take on the legendary Stratos. Meanwhile, James May looks back at the incredible story of the Porsche 917, from its early days as an unpromising widow maker to its evolution into one of the most successful racing cars of all time. Also in this show, Richard Hammond joins Clarkson at Stansted airport as the pair attempt to speed up the journey from check-in to security to the actual aeroplane by devising two radical takes on the idea of motorised hand luggage.
